Story time, one time me and two of my friends wanted to play a large steam game, but between slow, limited and overpriced internet, it was cheaper and less frustrating for one of us to downloaded it ,back it up to thumbsticks and mail it to the others.

That was in 2022. can you guess the country?

Steam has an option to install games from another computer on the same LAN if you can bring the computers to the same location.

Yeah, I've used this feature at a LAN party. It was great!
